Britney Spears Files Police Report Over Alleged Slap

Britney Spears says she was slapped by a member of an NBA star's security team Wednesday night in Las Vegas. The singer had arrived at a Vegas eatery for dinner with her husband and two other people when she saw Victor Wembanyama of the San Antonio Spurs. In an Instagram post on the matter, Spears says she tapped him on the shoulder because she wanted to congratulate him on his success, but Wembanyama says someone (he didn't know it was Spears, at the time, USA Today reports) grabbed him from behind. Spears says a member of Wembanyama's security team then "backhanded" her in the face without turning around, knocking her glasses off her face and almost causing her to fall.

The man later apologized to Spears, sources say, but ultimately her team decided to file a police report. Sources tell TMZ when police reviewed surveillance footage of the incident, it appeared that the man pushed Spears' hand away and that it may have been her own hand that hit her in the face, though the sources didn't mention how hard the alleged push happened. There is some confusion over whether the investigation is a criminal one; one of the gossip site's sources says it is while another says it is not. What is clear, per People, is that no arrests or citations have yet been issued. (More Britney Spears stories.)
